Mike’s Birthday

Today is Mike’s birthday.  Sadly, we have both been sick with bronchitis for several days so the celebration wasn’t much.  I didn’t even invite anyone over for cake and ice cream.  (That’s how sick we’ve been.  I don’t want to give this bronchitis to ANYONE!)

  Mike with his cake!

For Mike’s birthday I have him a fishing license and fishing pole so he can go fishing with his brother Scot.

I have one other gift, but I haven’t picked it up from the individual who made it for me.  I’ll let you know what it is as soon as Mike knows!

 

Our garden, after planting last week.  I’m not sure how it’s doing today.  It has been windy ALL day!

Monday’s Labor…

Mike spent about three hours on Monday tilling our garden.  This years garden will be about three times the size.

We planted our garden on Tuesday.  We have 18 tomato plants, 3 cherry tomatoes, 100 onions, green beans, jalapeno peppers, habanera peppers, green peppers, pumpkins, cucumbers, zucchini, crook neck and spaghetti squash.  Can’t wait for harvest!!!

Caroline’s Birthday – 14 May 2011

 

Saturday was Caroline’s birthday.  Here is a synopsis of our day!

The birthday girl – 87 years young!

Mike and I took Caroline to lunch.  We drove to Bluff and ate at Simpsons.  Afterwards, we drove over to where the swinging bridge used to be before it was flooded and then took a drive around Bluff.

We had company!  Adrienne, Jett and Tenli dropped by for cake and ice cream!

Scot dropped by and brought Caroline some candy.  Turtles!  They are her favorite!

 

Melanie Holliday (back left) dropped by with her sisters and niece to wish Caroline a happy birthday.  Melanie and Caroline have been friends for a long time, since Melanie was called as Caroline’s Visiting Teacher.
